Layers & a Linkup

Flannel: Land's End (this year's) {also seen here} // Cardigan: Old Navy {last styled with a dress} // Vest: Old Navy (similar) {last seen here} // Leggings: H&M // Boots: DSW (similarsplurge) {last worn for date night} // Purse: Target // Watch: Wristology (25% off with 'JENNA25') c/o // Earrings: Nomorerack.com c/o 

Tuesday was the Mr's birthday; so my day started bright (actually dark) and early since I picked up donuts to send to the office in celebration.  Husband didn't even want a birthday cake, just donuts.  I won't complain about that.  Although when my day involves rolling out of bed and trudging somewhere when it's 12° and practically dark outside, I'm going to count leggings as pants.  

My rule of key is that if leggings are going to qualify as non-sleepwear/workout apparel, your bum must be covered.  All of the bum.  None of that sneaky bottom cleavage.  They also need to be thick- like bend down and touch your toes and the fabric is still completely opaque -thick, because nobody wants to know your business anymore than you want them to know your business.  /End legging rant.


And of course today is linkup day!

Thanks so much to everyone who linked up last week!  Over 100 fabulous ladies linked up, and I am SO excited.  Seriously, watching the linkup grow each week is incredible!  It was so hard to choose, but a few of my favorites are below:

A chic little ensemble, and can we talk about that hair?!  It gives me life.Gorgeously unique color combo, and I love the milkmaid braids :)A stunningly detailed top, the perfect jeans, and a red lip are hard to beat.
